Online Event Registration Equals Success for Event Marketing

Wed, 16 Jul 2008 10:52:57 GMT

NORTH VANCOUVER, B.C., July 16 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Having difficulty getting people to respond to an invitation? Not enough people registered for an event? ePly, an online event registration service, makes it simple for people to register and maximizes results.

ePly provides online event registration forms for conferences and events. All of the conference registration forms ePly creates are confined to one page, making the process short, sweet, and simple.

"Almost all other companies who offer the same service have a system where people have to click through several pages to complete the various online registrations," Jim Romanik, president, ePly, explains. "Systems with multiple pages can cause people to get lost in the process and information can also be lost if the browser's back button is used."

ePly's one-page conference registration forms eliminate these problems. These practical and easy-to-use online event registration forms allow people registering for events to scroll up and down to see what information they need to provide before they start entering their details. They can review their information before they click submit and since it is designed much like a paper-based registration form, it's attractive to less Internet-savvy users.

Meeting and event planning professionals will also benefit. ePly covers every phase of the online event registration process from form planning, design, programming and testing to payment processing and refund management. It provides all the necessary tools for reporting so planners can focus on what they do best -- planning the actual event.

"The ePly tool made dealing with conference registration, refunds, and reporting a breeze," Laurie Monserrat, one conference planner, explains. "It was a great solution for the 'joys' of event planning."

ePly will also custom design conference registration forms to resemble company web sites. They understand that branding and image are important and that a successful event is the bottom line.

In addition to standard credit card processing, refunds and check payment facilitation, ePly also offers tax reporting and tracking, group registration, and more, all within a single conference registration form. They even have real-time management of limited seating to prevent overbooking.

"We can virtually meet any requirements that special event and conference coordinators may have," Romanik says.

The ePly web site also offers tips for successful event planning; how to avoid common event planning pitfalls; and much more.

Electronic Medical Records Are No Longer Limited to Physicians with Deep Pockets

Tue, 15 Jul 2008 09:52:08 GMT

LATHRUP VILLAGE, Mich., July 15 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Webahn Inc. announces the launch of an online electronic medical records application - Capzule.com. This new system makes it affordable for small physician groups to make the switch.

The launch of Capzule comes at an ideal time. A recent study appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine that reported many small physician groups have not switched over to an electronic system due to the high cost factor. On average, conversion costs approximately $40,000 per physician. With Capzule.com, the online cost is around $200 per month, per physician.

The study went on to explain that electronic medical records have helped to improve the quality and timeliness of care. Yet, due to high cost, less than one in five of the nation's doctors have started using such records.

Over 2,500 physicians responded to the survey. Among the small number of respondents who had fully functional electronic-records systems, most physicians reported the positive effects of the system on the quality of clinical decisions (82 percent); communication with other providers (92 percent); communication with patients (72 percent); prescription refills (95 percent); timely access to medical records (97 percent); and avoidance of medication errors (86 percent). Furthermore, 82 to 85 percent reported a positive effect on the delivery of long-term and preventive care.

"We want small clinics to have access to these positive health care practices as much as larger clinics who can afford expensive systems," Vinu Nair, CEO, Webahn Inc. says. "As a result, we created an innovative online tool that is not only cost effective, but efficient. Capzule is a fast evolving suite of tools that help small practices deliver quality care."

Webahn Inc. is a privately-held company based in Michigan. The company has been developing innovative health care solutions for over seven years. Their first product, OvernightScribe.com, originated to provide Internet-enabled clinical documentation platform to health care providers to manage medical transcriptions. OvernightScribe is used by many physicians across the country including leading hospitals like Henry Ford Health System of Michigan.

Capzule.com is subscription based and released to the public in its beta phase. For more information, visit: www.Capzule.com.

Cbeyond, Inc. Achieves Positive Return on Investment with the QBOS Tradespace Management(TM) System

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 10:20:44 GMT

Service Providers Strengthen Bottom Line with QBOS's Business Process Modeling Software, Portal Technology and Instance-Based Contextual Routing(TM)

DALLAS, Texas, July 1 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- QBOS, Inc. (www.qbos.com), a leading developer and provider of innovative web based management solutions serving large and small businesses, today announced that Cbeyond Inc. has successfully launched its TradeSpace Management System to their nationwide Field Service Partner network.

The QBOS TradeSpace Management System will extend process automation, document management, workforce management and collaboration capabilities beyond corporate boundaries to Cbeyond's field service partners who provide VoIP equipment, installation, and other communications services to Cbeyond's 35,000+ small business customers.

"We are extremely satisfied with our return on investment in the Tradespace Management System from QBOS," said Richard Batelaan, chief operating officer of Cbeyond. "QBOS implemented a customized solution within 60 days, including a workflow system that encompasses 180 of our national service partners. As soon as the system went live, we were able to drastically reduce our paper usage and save time. Their deep understanding of our business and commitment to high-quality customer service has made them a trusted partner."

QBOS customized the feature rich TradeSpace Management(TM) system, an innovative combination of Business Process Modeling Software, Portal technology and a unique instance based contextual routing engine, to give Cbeyond a real-time view into the service installation job stream as work progresses in the field. The TradeSpace Management System monitors all work flows, isolates remote process breakdowns, and initiates corrective actions enabling central operations to respond more quickly to the needs of remote personnel in the field.

"It's a smart product for smart companies," says Bob Henderson, Chief Executive Officer of QBOS. "We knew going into a well managed public company, like Cbeyond, would mean competing against the software industry's best available solutions. Not only did we have to show something better, we had to show something new - and we did just that."

Maintaining a competitive advantage with efficient operations requires providing secure, reliable and accurate information exchange between companies and their human resources. The TradeSpace Management System automatically manages the information and workflow exchange rules in accordance with a company's policy requirements while providing the flexibility necessary to optimize or change relationships and workflows in real-time, without invasive or complex programming. With access to real time information provided by the Tradespace Management System's dashboard reporting, clients can respond quickly and accurately to changing conditions, mitigating risk to the business. The TradeSpace Management system also stores Disaster Recovery and other contingency response processes for immediate activation.

"We know that every company is unique and believe that web based software has to be something more than just a template service. Our solutions are non-disruptive to current operations, do not create a burden for IT, and solves real problems enabling change without the considerable expense and overhead typically found with competitive solutions. QBOS is Cbeyond's trusted partner because of our extensive knowledge and experience in the service provider segment and our solution's ability to be rapidly deployed with quantifiable results," said Henderson.

Wed, 28 May 2008 01:17:39 GMT

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho, May 28 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Brooks Internet Software, Inc. (www.brooksnet.com) announces RPM Remote Print Manager 5.0, including new tools for creating print work flows. Dave Brooks, the company founder and president, says that the new RPM adds actions and transforms to the print processing model. Each queue can have as many actions and transforms as the user desires. RPM's classic features, including text and pass-through printing and filter processing, are now actions.

For instance, a user can now accomplish broadcast printing by simply adding text print actions to a queue. Additional actions such as email and copy to queue have been added. With the addition of multi-stage processing, RPM now makes it simple for the user to construct complex print work flows.

A number of transforms have been added as well, including the often requested string translator, and COR (Computer Output Reduction) which automatically scales and rotates a page depending on content. Existing transforms, such as SCS, have also been enhanced.

Email capabilities have been added to the product. A print job can be sent as an attachment. Email status can be sent when processing is complete. Alerts can be sent to an email address, or even as a text message to a cell phone.

The company says that the most requested feature, PDF output, is now incorporated in RPM. PDF output mimics the text print settings for a high fidelity copy of the printed page.

New Internet Web Browser Enhancement Protects Kids from Predators and Harmful Content

Wed, 13 Feb 2008 12:32:22 GMT

DALLAS, Texas - Feb. 13 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Kids are now safer while surfing the Web thanks to Zigback.com's Zigback Blocker. The Zigback Blocker is an Internet browser enhancement that creates a kid-friendly, condensed Internet by blocking millions of unverified, unknown, and potentially harmful and inappropriate web sites.

Zigback.com relies on a predetermined list of approved and verified web sites to give kids a safe and positive Internet experience while putting parents' minds at ease.

According to Zigback.com's co-founder, Marcus Dorris, "optimizing your web browser to automatically regulate the world wide web is truly the best way parents can be 100 percent sure that their child is not being harassed by cyber bullies, surfing inappropriate web sites, or being targeted by child predators."

Kids who use the Internet without structure, safeguards, and parental regulation are in danger of coming into contact with a child predator or explicit content and in appropriate images.

"Child predators are crafty and change their tactics all the time so pre-approving a child's web site choices is the only way parents can feel a high level of comfort that their child is properly protected while on the Internet," Dorris said.

Dorris adds that after he discovered adults instant messaging his teenage daughter and inappropriate pop-up ads luring his son to sketchy sites, that he would often sit in the same room to monitor their Internet activity.

"It's amazing what kids can find on the Internet," Kelly said, a working mom of two young teenage daughters, and a nine year old son. "Now, I have absolutely no concerns with my kids getting on the computer unsupervised because with the Zigback Blocker installed I already know in advance where they are going and what they are doing."

Zigback's secure, kid-friendly environment promotes the use of the Internet for educational and learning purposes. Sites that facilitate chatting, email, video uploading, file sharing, and social networking are replaced with web sites that promote math, science, music, free on-line games, research, religion, and more.

By equipping the Zigback Blocker with a dynamic scheduling tool, Zigback's creators have provided parents with the ability to also schedule surfing availability based on individual preferences so kids can concentrate on other things, like improving school grades.

"Parents have to get more involved in their children's surfing activities," Dorris said. "Unfortunately, we live in a time where a simple mistake of typing in an incorrect web address, can propel a child into a life of drugs, crime, or child-exploitation."

About Zigback.com, Inc.
Zigback (www.Zigback.com) is a globally-focused Internet safety company deploying intuitive and dynamic technology solutions that enable parents to regulate their children's access to web sites through URL pre-approval and real-time verification applications.

Founded in 2007, Zigback.com's common sense approach and affordable value-added services is helping parents to keep their kids safe from child predators across the globe. Zigback.com has no offices or agents operating outside the U.S., but through the global reach of the Internet, it has a growing customer base in several foreign markets including Australia, Canada, England, South Korea, India, Japan, Scotland, and Turkey.

SYSTEN Releases Innovative Internet File System That Stands Apart from the Crowd

Mon, 28 Jan 2008 13:32:21 GMT

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. - Jan. 28 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- SYSTEN, LLC, a Web and software-solutions company, announces the release of a newly re-architected Internet file system - TrueShare; it makes remote file access, file storage, and file sharing, easier and more effective than ever. Originally launched in 2006, SYSTEN has completely re-architected the web-based software to establish a state-of-the-art technology platform on which rapid development of robust end-user enhancements and integration services can occur.

While there are many file-sharing services on the market, TrueShare (www.TrueShare.com) sets itself apart from others as a true Internet file system that is easy-to-use and offers unlimited user accounts.

TrueShare is also very different in that it is not only available as an online service, it is also available as a licensed product designed to replace FTP servers in corporate data centers.

So, how does it work? Users simply create folders and upload their files to them using TrueShare's secure site, making them available for remote access, storage, and sharing. To begin sharing files, users can use the TrueShare Send-A-Link feature to email a link to individuals who they want to download the file(s); or, they can create individual user accounts and provide access to the folder where the file has been saved. They then login to TrueShare and begin sharing files.

"As an online service or as an installed product in a corporate data center, TrueShare can effectively replace FTP servers and the need for FTP client software," Eric Matt, president and founder of SYSTEN, LLC, explains. "And, with its familiar folders/files tree structure and extensive management tools, users and administrators alike can be immediately productive with TrueShare."

TrueShare is used today by thousands of professionals in many industries including accountants, reprographers, attorneys, engineers, architects, and more - where it saves them time, effort, frustration and money.

Since its inception, TrueShare has served over 1 million files to users around the world.

SYSTEN, LLC is a nationally-recognized and privately-owned technology firm based in Overland Park, Kansas. Since 1997, the company has provided professional services to public and private organizations across the U.S.

Luverne Alumni News Selects McKerin Software's Outreach Application to Improve Member Address Maintenance

Tue, 08 Jan 2008 15:48:17 GMT

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. - Jan. 8 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- McKerin Software today announced that Luverne Alumni News, a publication providing Luverne Minnesota High School graduates with hometown news and stories, has licensed McKerin Software Outreach to improve member address maintenance and mailing operations.

"Up until now, one person maintained our database in a file. If we wanted others to update information we would have to email the file to another user. This process posed problems from both a security standpoint and opened up the possibility for data loss. Outreach solved our problem by providing one central, secure database that all our users can access. Since Outreach is web-based, our users can be anywhere as long as they have internet access," said Patti Pierson, Luverne Alumni News volunteer.

"We are pleased that Luverne Alumni News has selected Outreach to manage their membership roster. We look forward to serving the current and future technology needs of Luverne Alumni News," said Matt Gropel, Founder of McKerin Software.

McKerin Software's Outreach solution is a web-based application that assists non-profit organizations in maintaining its member database as well as to track its donations. Outreach consolidates the functions necessary to manage a non-profit organization's membership. Outreach does this by designating one central location in which users maintain member information, enter and track donations, trail event participation, and generate targeted e-mail and postal mail campaigns. All of these functions are brought together in one application, providing multiple users within an organization ease of access - whether it's from home or in an office setting.

About McKerin Software LLC
Founded in 1998, McKerin Software is the leader in providing quality software and services to faith-based and non-profit organizations nationwide. From web-site design and hosting to customer application design and development, McKerin Software offers a wide range of products and services designed to improve efficiency and simplify operations.

Calyx Point Loan Origination System Users Rely on ComplianceEase for Regulatory Compliance Audit

Tue, 08 Jan 2008 09:51:35 GMT

ComplianceAnalyzer now offers streamlined checks from within Point software

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. - Jan. 8 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- ComplianceEase(R), a leading provider of mortgage industry automated compliance and risk management solutions, announced today that its automated compliance system, ComplianceAnalyzer(R), will be available on Calyx Point's WebConnect(TM) platform on January 10th, 2008. Although ComplianceAnalyzer has been accessible through Point software for more than four years, this important and enhanced interface offers mortgage brokers and lenders the most complete and easy-to-use automated compliance system available.

"Calyx Point customers will now have the ability to run comprehensive compliance checks on their loans within seconds, without having to leave the Calyx Point LOS," said Nina Travinsky, vice president of ComplianceEase. "By using this new feature, Calyx Point customers have access to ComplianceAnalyzer reports at their fingertips. Additionally, every loan run through ComplianceAnalyzer is assigned with an industry baseline RiskIndicator that allows lenders of all types to quickly spot and avoid potential compliance issues."

Online Billing Program Helps Private Practitioners Increase Revenue

Thu, 27 Dec 2007 11:30:34 GMT

DENVER, Colo. - Dec. 27 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Therapy Partner's innovative online billing program is helping psychologists, psychiatrists and other fee-for-service professionals increase private practice revenue. Mental health providers and other professionals working in private practice are constantly searching for ways to increase revenue that won't interfere with the work they're so passionate about.

Small business owners outside the mental health community have known for some time that accepting credit and debit cards is one of the best ways to expand their business and increase revenue. When businesses offer convenient ways for their customers to pay for products and services, they're more likely to receive payment!

Business owners are well aware of the positive impact accepting credit cards can have on their bottom line. Therapy Partner banked on this idea when it entered the mental health market nearly four years ago with the first online billing program of its kind for the mental health industry.

For the first time, therapists and other fee-for-service professionals have an easy way to accept credit cards using Therapy Partner - an online billing system designed to meet the specific needs of private practitioners.

Therapy Partner's web-based billing program securely stores client contact information and form of payment in a therapist's account. With a click of the mouse, therapists can automate payment for services rendered through their office, without impeding the consultative time they have set aside with their clients.

Therapists using the Therapy Partner program have reported increases in revenue anywhere between 10-20% after their first year of service. This increase is mostly attributed to the therapist's ability to accept credit cards using Therapy Partner's online format.

Therapists have found their clients like the convenience of using credit and debit cards and more likely to pay for services-people just aren't writing checks anymore. According to the Federal Reserve, the use of paper checks is declining steadily each year. This trend has left many therapists using "check-only" payment policies empty handed.

Those practitioners who accept credit cards are attracting more clients. Clients feel they have more access to professional services when they can use their credit card to pay for services. "Cash-only" policies often deter clients from seeking services they feel they desperately need, even though they're willing to pay by other means.

Therapists using Therapy Partner have found they're no longer afraid to charge appropriate fees for the services they provide and have foregone sliding their scale to accommodate for the cash requirements they once placed on their clients. Accepting credit cards allows clients to pay how they want and ensures payment for the service provider. A true "win-win" situation for everyone!

Therapy Partner's online format also allows therapists to bill for all of their consultative time, without having to continually ask for additional money from their clients. Therapists have found discussions about money often cloud the consultative space and prohibit them from asking for payment at all, despite having performed the work.

The additional suite of billing and administrative services Therapy Partner offers also helps therapist save an enormous amount of time. In addition to tracking client session and payment history, Therapy Partner automates monthly statements to all clients registered in a therapist's account, saving valuable time and in the end, a lot of money.

Therapy Partner is a tool that allows therapists and other fee-for-service professionals to focus on what they do best, without compromising their ability to be financially successful - A true evolution for those in the mental health industry.
